Is gearbox noise dangerous to drive with?
A grinding or clunking gearbox noise means immediate repair — continued driving with low or degraded fluid will destroy bearings and gear teeth, turning a ₹15,000 fluid-and-bearing job into a ₹1,50,000 gearbox rebuild. A light whine is less urgent but should be diagnosed within 2 weeks.
What causes DSG gearbox noise?
DSG gearbox noise usually comes from the mechatronic unit oil pump cavitating (low/old oil), or the dual-mass flywheel rattling when the clutch pack wears. Both are diagnosed with VCDS or ODIS — GarageNation does DSG diagnostic scans for ₹2,500.
